The Millie is Libelula's most-loved silhouette, and this long evening version is perhaps the most spectacular it has ever been. A navy silk georgette bodice flows into a floor-length navy velvet skirt cut on the bias - the combination of two luxurious fabrics creating a dress that is at once dramatic but also wearable.
The bias-cut skirt is the secret behind the Millie's enduring appeal: it skims beautifully without clinging, moving with the body rather than against it. The crossover tie sits just below the bust, cinching the waist and creating a silhouette that is genuinely flattering on all figure shapes and sizes. Whether you're dressing for a black-tie wedding, a gala dinner, or a milestone celebration, this dress does the work for you.
The bodice is lined in satin for a smooth, comfortable feel against the skin, while the velvet skirt - substantial, lustrous and richly textured, requires no lining. It has the weight and opacity to stand on its own.
This is not a dress you'll wear once. It is a dress you will reach for again and again.
